Its been a while since i posted on my blog, Since now my other Project went live and we had a smooth first month end close, I am going to post a series of articles on learnings, new tools and tips and tricks on troubleshooting and tuning which i learnt.
I had this situation many times where i try to start a process ex: database listener, apache process etc... the process errors out because of some permissions problem or port conflict issue. I have been working on environments where we have several applications running on the same server and its pretty hard to identify what port/subport or directory is causing the issue.
After some research i came across a different usage of tool strace (Linux) or truss (UNIX),
strace lsnrctl start DEV
